Deaf

[Mr. Smithers]

For the past 3 days, I am unable to hear most sounds out of my right ear. I was wondering as to what I should do. Should I go to my doctor because I really want to. I'm not bothered by it but what if it gets worse?

[Nihilus]

Go to the doctor. Have you been playing loud music or something because that might have to do with it. I'd say go to your doctor. You may be going deaf in that one ear. I wouldn't listen to loud music or anything like that.

[Mr. Smithers]

Now that you mention it, I have been using headphones alot to listen to music.

Urm well I had something similar and it turns out I have collapsed earsdrums =/. I have 2 go 2 the hospital every 6 months 4 a checkup.

Have you had a cold recently? Is it possible that you ear is draining, and just plugged?

It could also be caused by a vitamin deficiency. Regardless of the cause, see a doctor.

C'mon, Fezzie! If you cannot hear, of course you should see a doc! Anytime any part of yor body quits working it's a very good idea to have it checked out, clearly there's something wrong!

My bet is that you have some form of inner ear infection or inflammation, both easily treated. However, if you leave it, there's a greater chance that it could become permanent.

I agree with Sam, see your GP soon.
Though I highly doubt inflammation or an (inner) ear infection, as that would bring a great deal of discomfort and pain along with it. Could possibly just be a wax build up, they've happend to me before. If that's the case, you'll probably just end up getting your ear(s) syringed and then be on your way.

Erm... syringed?

You should definitely go see a doctor, no question about that.

This happened to me a few months ago, I'm not sure exactly why, but the doctor said it was just some sort of fluid that was still draining from my ear. Not sure how it got in there. But the doc will have all the info you need.

i would get it get checked out by a doctor

[My_Toes_Are_Cold]

Could be just an ear infection.

Get it yourself checked.

[Mr. Smithers]

I got it figured out. My doctor said my eardrum ruptured and I didn't even notice or feel it.

I had to put this ear medicine in my ear for a few days then it healed. He said I have to try away from loud music and I can't wear those ipod headphones anymore. :(
